We had the pleasure of interviewing Matt Simons over Zoom video!
Fresh off the release of his new studio album ‘Identity Crisis’ and a coast-to-coast US tour with 2Cellos, LA based songwriter Matt Simons has revealed the music video for “Years,” featuring exclusive behind-the-scenes footage from his biggest concert tour to-date. One of the most vulnerable tracks on the new album, rich in subtle production and an emotive feel, “Years” features Matt’s exquisite pop songwriting in full force.
A story of humble beginnings, Simons grew up in Palo Alto as the grandson of two opera singers. He spent much of his early life studying jazz and classical music before switching to clarinet and guitar, and ultimately crafted his own identity as a melodic pop songwriter and lyricist. He took steps to self-promote his releases online, and to his surprise, a remix of his breakthrough single “Catch & Release” bubbled up organically and ended up as one off 2016’s biggest hits, reaching Gold and Platinum status. International recognition, performances on The TODAY Show, and billions of streams followed.
Last week Simons released his fourth studio album ‘Identify Crisis,' featuring his recent hit singles “Better Tomorrow,” “Cold,” and “Identity Crisis,” which have amassed over 50 million streams. With sweet, piano-rooted melodies and lyrics that speak plainly about important events in his life — including his struggles with anxiety – the album was written when COVID began its spread, giving him space and time to reflect.
Having won over many new lifelong fans on his US arena tour with 2Cellos, Matt and his band are about to embark on the EU leg of the tour, hitting some of the world’s biggest arena venues from Paris, London to Berlin and many cities in between.
